The Wave

The Wave in North Coyote Buttes is in the Paria Canyon/Vermilion Cliffs Wilderness Area on the border of Utah and Arizona at the edge of the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument which is in Utah.

I think that most folks that get a permit for the North Coyote Buttes Special Permit Area and "The Wave", focus mainly on seeing "The Wave" as seen in the thousand of pictures all over the internet, magazines and TV documentaries. Honestly though, the wave is a fairly large area that encompasses several acres of eerie formations, colorful rocks and striations that resemble waves and swells in the oceans. To go to "The Wave" just to see the famous "Wave Photos" would be a big mistake. First of all only 20 people a day are allowed in this pristine area, secondly it is very difficult at times to achieve one of these permits, so to go to "The Wave" just to see "The Wave" would be a crime. When you get a permit to see "The Wave", be sure to see "The Whole Wave", even if it means covering 100's of acres!
